'vienna', a new release on Small Forms Records w  FIM Basel Concert March 2023   Hypersurface is a NYC-based trio consisting of Drew Wesely (guitar/objects), Lester St. Louis (cello), and Carlo Costa (percussion).     Hypersurface explores timbral, durational, and formal aspects of improvisation with lenses focused on their instruments' acoustic particularities alongside employing tiles, railroad spikes, ceramic plates and other objects to expand them further. In coming together Carlo, Drew and Lester wanted to create a music that puts emphasis on the erasure of sonic boundaries, embracing the liminal spaces between their instruments, their sounds and the greater sonic environment. Timbre, gesture, duration, particles, layers… a real time tapestry of its own. The trio has given performances throughout the United States and Europe in a diversity of concert settings from clubs to large halls and galleries; with each utilizing the acoustics to follow potent musical pathways.    Kamau Amu Patton is an interdisciplinary artist and educator whose work examines history and culture through engagement with archives, documents, stories, and sites.

Endless Spill is a series that highlights hyper-emotionality in contemporary music, centering the human breath and voice in all of its mutations, in a combination of live performance, and deep listening and dance DJs sets from some of the most expressive artists we know, up close and at their weird best. We are going to make the studio as intimate as possible so that we ravers can access and explore an expanded emotional spectrum, because honestly, clubbing ruined concerts for us. Once you’ve become accustomed to the bass in your bones, it’s hard to go back to watching people perform and not respond in kind – after you let your freak out long enough, it’s hard to put it back in the closet. Now we only want to hear music in the middle of the dancefloor, as it’s the best place to hear it: to be inside of the sound, to be in love with it, and for it to fill us.


For this edition we'll have a narrative DJ set from ciénaga, followed by live performances from Madison Greenstone, G.O.M.A., and Enereph. 


Doors are at 7 with a deep listening session by ES resident aka-Sol while high vibrational vegetarian food will be available to purchase and set you right for the night. The performances will run from 8 through Midnight. Come early, with dreams and yearnings.


cienéga DJs regularly on the East Village Radio show Smart Rider Principles: “a musical colonoscopy” where they burrow into shatter zones, ungovernable areas outside of the borders of state control, formed under the immense pressure, in a tapestry of cultures and languages, to take listeners on a sound-archeology pyschojourney through the post-internet audio archive.


Madison Greenstone stretches the Clarinet to its breaking point.  Traditionally and mainly used as a monophonic instrument known for its velvet melodiousness, Greenstone's extreme techniques push it into polyphonic and textural mode, using all of its physicality to resonate, flicker, hoot, pulse, and generally bring out all the latent volatility of the instrument.  Their completely acoustic performance must be seen to be believed, as they transform their breath into a powerful, living wall of sound.


G.O.M.A. delivers an extremely fresh take on the EMOtional side of the hardcore continuum. He dropped his first EP in March this year and it’s been on repeat here ever since. He’s been fine tuning his live act for a debut performance at the studio, and his sonic world exactly typifies what we yearn for at Endless Spill: personal, soulful, richly textured electronics infused with bleeding heart emotionality.

enereph is bringing her particularly ethereal, otherworldly sound from Seattle just for the night.  Her sounds blend IDM, dub, bass, and ambient sounds, creating intricate digital wetlands to drip and trip through.  Although she’s played recently at some private parties in the city, this will be her NYC solo live debut in a venue.  Her live sets are legendary, and are incubators of her productions, so come see the future get made in a swirl of synthetic bliss on the studio’s holographic sound system.
